SB204

SB204 creates a formal process for abandoning oil, gas, and carbon dioxide pipelines in South Dakota by defining a pipeline as "abandoned" if it hasn't transported materials for five consecutive years and requiring pipeline owners to notify affected landowners within 30 days of abandonment. The notification must include the pipeline owner's contact information, easement location, abandonment date, and inform landowners of their right to reclaim full use of their property once the pipeline is abandoned.
